POWERbreathe

POWERbreathe uses a technique commonly known as resistance training, in much the same way as you might use weights to increase the strength of your arm muscles.

It has been called “dumbbells for the diaphragm” because it makes the breathing muscles work harder to improve their strength and endurance. When training with POWERbreathe you will notice that you have to work harder to breathe in. This is the effect of resistance training acting on the muscles used to inhale - primarily the diaphragm and rib cage muscles. When breathing out, there is no resistance and you can exhale normally, allowing the chest and breathing muscles to relax, naturally pushing the air from your lungs.
